Abstract : The report is an analysis of the performance of two general schemes which might be used to obtain enhanced accuracy of aircraft position determination in the DAB system. Both schemes use supplementary receivers to detect DABS replies, permitting multilateration or hyperbolic position finding, while differing in the way bistatic path lengths are measured. Detailed derivations and theoretical numerical results are presented. (Author)
